Why Muslims feel let down by Supreme Court

The deeply disappointing verdict in the Ayodhya title suit, go-ahead for the survey of Varanasi’s Gyanvapi mosque and constant talk of uniform civil code are just some of the reasons. Ajaz Ashraf writes.

As the 2024 Elections Approach, India Is Entering the Most Dangerous Phase of Its Existence

The violence in Nuh, Palwal and Gurgaon makes it clear Narendra Modi has fallen back on the one antidote with which he is familiar, which worked unfailingly in Gujarat and in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. This is the stirring up hatred of Muslims and other minorities in the Hindu majority.
